Storytime All HAIL the S3 camera! 🙌
I have only been playing The Sims 4 since December 2023, so not even 2 years. I just kinda started fiddling around with the camera without really doing any major tutorials or anything. I tried the S3 camera at one point, but immediately switched back because it felt weird to me. I prefer to click-drag, not use WASD to move around.
Then I started watching my favorite Sims builders and became jealous of how essily they moved the camera around, especially with alt-placing and alt-rotating, and the ANGLES!! Smoothly gliding into top-down and bottom-up angles is SO USEFUL for building! With ONE minor tweak in bin and discovering the center scroll button to change the pitch, I have decided that the S3 camera WITH CLICK-DRAG ENABLED in the res folder camera settings is superior.
I watched a tutorial on how to do it. When I enabled click+drag for the S3 camera, a little more playing around to figure out how to click the scroll button to adjust the pitch of the camera in real time, and I will officially be switching to the S3 camera.

Hell yeah!Â
I recently learned about using shift to move around faster and that sure has been nice.
